Abstract: A device comprises processing circuitry configured to identify a telemetry packet indicating telemetry data for a plurality of packets output by a network device of a plurality of network devices and select a source identifier for the network device from a plurality of source identifiers. The processing circuitry is further configured to modify the telemetry packet to further indicate the selected source identifier and output the modified telemetry packet.

Abstract: A device comprises processing circuitry configured to configure an edge device to collect telemetry flow data output by a plurality of network devices and to generate processed telemetry flow data based on the collected telemetry flow data. The processing circuitry is further configured to receive the processed telemetry flow data from the edge device and store an indication of the processed telemetry flow data.

Abstract: A method includes determining, by a controller device that manages a plurality of network devices, device characteristic information for a network device of the plurality of network devices and selecting, by the controller device, one or more sensors from a plurality of sensors based on the device characteristic information for the network device. The method further includes outputting, by the controller device, an instruction to cause the network device to generate the one or more selected sensors at the network device and receiving, by the controller device, sensor information from the one or more selected sensors generated at the network device.
